[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You almost always need a report, not just a diagnostic code. A lot of people try to game the system with ADHD so they are usually careful about documentation. For our daughter with ADHD we were required to submit updated testing so we chose a provider from a list on the office of student disability website. Since we only needed verification of ADHD, the testing was fairly inexpensive (under $1000). Sometimes a school will make an exception if a physician attests to the diagnosis but the updated testing will benefit your student. [/quote] This is said from a position of great privilege. Many of us do not have $1000 to spend on unnecessary testing. My DC has been diagnosed with ADHD since age 8 and has been on medication for 6 years. There really would no or very little benefit to testing, particularly since he has been through full testing at age 8, 11 and 14. [/quote]
